"You know, there are male and female lawyers who wake up in the morning and are actually proud of being ACLU lawyers. But I think the majority of Americans view ACLU lawyers as people who hate America and who want to destroy all Judeo-Christian values and beliefs."

Actually, I think the ACLU lawyers are proud of the fact that they hate America and are proud of their efforts to destroy our Judeo-Christian culture.

I would agree - they are subversives, both politically, and culturally in America. Why don't they get the same treatment as the John Birch Society???

Imagine the possibilities:

4 men "married" to each other.

One guy and three gals.

Two gals and one guy.

Four gals.

Two men and one boy.

Three men and one horse.

It will eventually come to this.

I'd also be starting to worry if the name on my dinner dish were 'Fido'.

Every day, in every way, their goals for us become increasingly plainer...:

Most people don't realize that the ACLU is actually a communist front.

How about we identify where all the ACLU lawyers live and then find a better public use for their homes!

"It will eventually come to this."

You are really insulting all Canine-Americans, Bovine-Americans and Gallus Domesticus-Americans who are demanding their rights to marry Homo Sapiens. It's time that the ACLU stood up for them, too.

Polygamy makes a lot of sense.

It is the natural way of things for a successful man to have more than one mate.

If a society tries to repress that tendency, it finds its way out anyway in the form of infidelity.

Healthier for all--society and people--to legalize polygamy.

Polygamy is really not illegal, since not recognized in law, unless it involves incest or sex with a minor. I don't really understand what this one is all about. If a guy can round up three adult women who live in his house to service him, that is not a crime - anywhere.

Perfectly legal--unless he marries them.

Strange, really.

A man can live with as many girlfriends as he wants so long as he doesn't make honest women out of them.

Except that then there are a surplus of males without available women, which is not good for society. Think of all those surplus Muslim young males in polygamous societies, with too much time on their hands, and not enough familial responsibilities. Thus it should not be recognized in law, and no legal benefits should attend, unless of course an offsetting number of males are truly gay. It is rather basic really. I am surprised you missed it.

He can "marry" as many as he wants. That is not a crime. But only the first marriage will have legal cognizance. The subsequent marriages are a legal nullity, but not a crime.

I want to find out where John Paul Stevens, Anthony Kennedy, David Souter, Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Stephen Breyer live. Then I'd like to file eminent domain suits to build high-rise condominiums and shopping centers on their property. And I think the local governments should issue municipal bonds to completely fund the projects, that way I can reap all of the financial rewards without taking any financial risks.

What's next? Will the ACLU fight for someone's "right" to marry their cat? If not, why not? Some people are born liking cats...

Massachusetts would be (and is) very hypocritical if they don't legalize polygamy, but allow gay "marriage" to continue.

And I'll bet they will as soon as some one manages to get a case up to the Mass. Supreme Court (or whatever they call it).

Coming up next on the agenda: legal sex with children.

Doesn't make a difference.

In our society, powerful men maintain mistresses on the side anyway.

Might as well make it legal and raise women to appreciate the benefits of having other women in the household to help with the housework and babysitting.

And at all events, it would be only a minority of men who would be able to afford more than one wife, so not that many women would be taken out of circulation.

Additionally, an increasingly large percentage of American women are not finding anyone to marry anyway.

(And no wonder: Why would men want to marry anyone when milk is free, so to speak)
